If there is heavy memory pressure, page allocation with __GFP_NOWAIT
fails easily although it's order-0 request. I got below warning 9 times
for normal boot.
<snip >: page allocation failure: order:0, mode:0x2200000(GFP_NOWAIT|__GFP_NOTRACK)

__memcg_schedule_kmem_cache_create() tries to create a shadow slab cache
and the worker allocation failure is not really critical because we will
retry on the next kmem charge. We might miss some charges but that
shouldn't be critical. The excessive allocation failure report is not
very helpful.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
